Rovi Unveils Multi-Screen Service Designed to Make it Easier for CE Manufactures and App Developers to Include Dynamic Cross-Device Interactivity
Rovi's Multi-Screen Service is designed to enable device, mobile, and web app developers to add multi-device and multi-user capabilities in a consistent way. The technology is planned to be deployed to power the pairing of one or more devices across networks, such as apps or games where phones and tablets control the primary screen experience. For TV, smartphone and tablet manufacturers, the technology can enable the efficient sharing of a digital entertainment across devices and networks, as well as power companion activities that enhance or augment the primary viewing experience.
"The collaboration with PlayJam, a leader in TV gaming, is significant and should help Rovi expand our customer base and influence in the new connected entertainment ecosystem," said Matt Milne, executive vice president worldwide sales and marketing, Rovi Corporation. "Rovi has established a strong position enabling customers to deliver a high-quality video experience across virtually any screen. Rovi Multi-Screen Service should help bolster this position and fuel a new range of Rovi-powered products and services that deliver highly interactive, multi-screen entertainment experiences." |
